By including Brivo technologies as part of Comcast’s suite of smart technology solutions, the company stated that, “We are taking a major step forward, allowing us to provide a more comprehensive cloud-based portfolio with powerful technology integrations.”

Centralized cloud management enables building managers to remotely monitor and control building access through real-time monitoring, comprehensive data tracking, and AI analytics insights.

Empowering operational efficiency

Flexible access permission rules can enable the ability to improve operations, including wait times, administrative tasks, and workflow efficiencies.
